Resources for Small Business Affected by COVID-19

As news about the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to evolve, the health and safety of our small business alumni, staff, partners, and the individuals and businesses they serve are our top priorities. ICCC is actively adjusting our curriculum to prioritize business recovery strategies, as well as offering capital solutions to support small business owners as they recover from the coronavirus crisis.

As a result, we’ve created the Small Business Resource Center, which hosts a wide range of national and local resources aimed at supporting small businesses through the COVID-19 pandemic. You can find local Texas resources here.
